Aluminum lower-arm replacement

JR-TFD05-LB aluminum front and rear lower suspension arms are offered as an aftermarket replacement for TAMIYA Thunder Shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher buggies. Delivered as a pair, these arms replace the factory plastic items to provide a more rigid link for consistent setup and extended service life.

Use is limited to the chassis types listed above; they are not universal parts. The blue finish helps when visually inspecting the car after running.

Fitting guidance: these arms install into the same mounting points used by the original lower arms on compatible TAMIYA chassis and interact with existing hub mounts and suspension geometry. After installation, cycle the suspension and check for any interference with nearby drivetrain or shock components.

Setup effect: swapping to aluminum lowers reduces compliance at the mount, which can change steering input and mid-corner balance; proceed with small tuning steps to recover the desired handling feel.

The JR-TFD05-LB arms are a solid aluminum upgrade for the named TAMIYA Thunder-series buggies when a firmer lower arm is required; always confirm the exact arm layout on your chassis before competitive use.

The aluminum arms are tougher than the original plastic parts and resist deformation, but any metal part can transfer impact loads differently; evaluate the trade-offs for your driving style and consider protective upgrades where necessary.
Not necessarily, but because the arms alter stiffness, you may find improved balance by fine-tuning shock springs, damping and wheel alignment rather than replacing parts outright.
After installing, measure toe and camber and perform a short test run. Look for symmetric tire wear and consistent steering response across laps, then make incremental adjustments as required.
The product is supplied with a blue finish as indicated in the model suffix; check listings for alternative finishes if available.
